Ends at about 9 minutes and its not even lunch yet.

Nonetheless, we get to see hords of men off to work which in 1937 was either a fable or was temporary. After all, if you look at the 1940 census pages, it was very common to see factory workers who only worked about 20 weeks between April 1939 and April 1940- just two years later, and in the same cities as they show here. Hmmm. What was that all about? A 1939 recession?

At 7:53, that auto body flying over towards that chassis... Yikes! I wonder how many guys got clobbered by flying auto bodies? 10 a year?

The last 7 minutes didn't make it through the process. Hope to be able to see the rest of it sometime.

Similar to but quite different from the other, more abbreviated JH production of the same name, same year. Apparently there are two versions.

Gets 4 stars but I cant rate it because half of it is missing. (still missing)

A movie which promises stgrongly then becomes a shill for the American Consumer, 'From Dawn To Sunset starts off Baraka Style, more accurately, Koyannaquatsi style, with americans waking up, going to work at their gm plants, getting ready etc. So far so good, while I was watching it, I was actually please this wasnt a repeat of 'Master Hands' where it was celebrating a birth of a car. This looked to me more about the people (again Koyanaquaatsi), but then this film COMPLETELY falls apart in the second half, where the film just gets obsessed with the fact that these men have all this money to spend! And it goes from city to city, as we watch men pick up their pay stub, and then going to spend it on stuff they can buy at their city. We repeat this cycle at least 10 times, and it began to get NNOYING after the first 5. It then finishes by going back to 'the man' at the end of his day, whether he plays at home, or goes out, and then finally back to bed. Somewhat dissapointing, this film could have been so much more.
